In the year of 3068, a handful of people lay coughing, dying in the rubble of a broken earth. Everyone is crying, screaming and begging God for mercy.
These few people are the survivors of World War III: The Nuclear War. And they just so happen to be vegan.
One skinny, sickly man stands up admist the fire and rubble. He chokes on the radioactive air. He has nothing but one tiny thing - a will to survive.
While the other victims watch, this man, Dosilios, picks up pieces of rubble and begins to create a small structure. After 3 days, he has created a room big enough for 30 dying vegans.
Then, he goes for miles around, rescuing babies and children from their dead and dying families. Upon collecting one of his last children, he spots the tiniest plant seedling. Carefully, he picks it up.
Dosilios planted his seedling in the middle of his shelter. Slowly it grew, releasing the smallest amount of fresh air into their shelter.
Everyday, Dosilios strived to make his "home" bigger and better.
Over time, the children helped, and soon, Sustainable Dome: 1 was created.
It was a dome as large as 3 acres and as high as half a telegraph pole. Dosilios' tree was in the centre.
Inside the dome, Dosilios made little houses for the children, a school where he was the teacher, principal, janitor and secretary. Above all, Dosilios grew a garden from his one tree.
This seedling was a gift if Dosilios ever got one. When his tree was 18 months old, it began to grow fruits and vegetables of all sorts.
Because of Dosilios' seedling, the first generation of Domeites got all the nutrients they needed to grow up into strong adults.
After Dosilios' death 20 years later, the oldest child appointed herself as the new leader of the dome. She changed the domes name to Dosilios in memory of the man who saved them. She expanded the dome to triple its size and it never stopped getting bigger.
All the Domeites continued to tend to the domes garden, their only food source. They bred more and more generations of Domeites to prosper and look after the dome forever.
During the reign of the 5th generation of Domeites, Dosilios' tree died. Jules, the 5th leader, created a brand-new way of sustainably filtering the air and water of the dome.
He and a group of 4th generation scientists created a giant metal filter I the place of Dosilios' tree. The inside was filled with little plant saplings which filtered water and air.
Forever, Dosilios will remain a thriving, growing dome city, all thanks to Dosilios the Great Vegan.
